The Lakers had to win Game 3 at Crypto.com to keep any reasonable hopes for the season alive. The Nuggets clearly had no interest in giving the Lakers any hope. Jamal Murray picked up right where he left off after Thursday's absurd fourth quarter pushed the Nuggets to victory in Game 2, lighting the Lakers up in the first quarter Saturday to give Denver a big early lead. The Lakers did what they could to fight back, but were playing uphill for the entire game, and simply didn't have the juice to pull it out. Denver was simply too good down the stretch. Murray finished with 37, Nikola Jokic 24, despite fighting foul trouble all game. Meanwhile, the Lakers got 28 from Anthony Davis and 23 each from LeBron James and Austin Reaves, but it wasn't enough. Not nearly so, on a night where D'Angelo Russell, Dennis Schröder and Jarred Vanderbilt combined for 10 points, and the team was once again under 33% from 3-point range. Down 0-3, it would seem the season is functionally over. There's still Game 4 on Monday, and at the least the Lakers would like to send things back to Denver. But no question, history suggests LA's season ended on Saturday.

Topics include: JJ and Tommy preview Game 2 of The Western Conference Finals between LeBron James, Anthony Davis and The Los Angeles Lakers vs. Nikola Jokic and The Denver Nuggets series and the adjustments that will need to be made from each team. Then Kevin Huerter joins us to talk about his big season with The Sacramento Kings, digging into the JJ Redick / Kings animosity, Kevin on whether THE BEAM is something that Sacramento should continue to do given the expectations, what it's like playing for Mike Brown, his two-man game with Domantas Sabonis, the extremely clutch play of De'Aaron Fox and Stephen Curry's ICONIC Game 7 performance this year. Then Alex Caruso joins us to talk about how these playoffs sort of prove the Bubble Championship was almost an "anti-fluke", what is different about this Lakers vs. Nuggets match-up from this year to his championship year, how Anthony Davis is the most important player in the series, the disappointing season for The Chicago Bulls, seeing Jimmy Butler and The Miami Heat literally turn on a switch against them in the play-in game, how he would cover Jayson Tatum in these playoffs, talking about being named First Team All Defense and why Devin Booker and Donovan Mitchell are the toughest players to guard in the NBA.Subscribe to The Old Man and The Three podcast w/ JJ Redick (ESPN / First Take) and Tommy Alter YouTube channel today for more NBA analysis, player interviews, highlights and The Dunker Spot full episodes.And be sure to check out this week's episode of The Old Man and The Three Things EXCLUSIVELY on Amazon Music. http://www.amazon.com/OM3_us_hfd_wiaa_110122___Call (800) 327-5050 or visit gamblinghelplinema.org (MA), Gambling Problem?

The Lakers played essentially two different games on Wednesday in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals - a small lineup game that put them in a big hole, and a large lineup game that helped them climb out. And while it wasn't enough to actually win, many wonder if the Lakers found a formula they can use in tonight's Game 2 in Denver. Will Rui Hachimura spend a lot of time guarding Nuggets star Nikola Jokic, helping Anthony Davis roam the paint more actively as a help defender? It worked on Wednesday, but will the Nuggets counter more effectively if/when the Lakers go back to it? And how will the Lakers counter the counter? And really, when it's all said and done, how much mental and emotional energy should the Lakers spend trying to "stop" Jokic? What does that even mean, really? Instead, could they look to try and put a lid on the rest of the squad, as much as possible? And assuming Hachimura enters the starting lineup (or, in theory, Jarred Vanderbilt returns to it), who sits? Would it be Dennis Schroder, who has plenty of experience coming off the bench, or D'Angelo Russell, who has started 431 of the 495 games played over his NBA career? What about reports the Lakers are concerned they could "lose" Russell if they bring him off the bench? Who is concerned, and why are they saying it out loud? It's a weird line of discussion to allow for a group that has been drama free since the deadline. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: The Lakers seem like they'll start Hachimura in Game 2. Is that the right move? SEGMENT 2: If Hachimura starts, who sits? SEGMENT 3: Should the Lakers be concerned they'll "lose" Russell if he comes off the bench?
